OPEN AND CLOSE

CIRCUIT
BEFORE WE PROCEED TO OUR
NEXT TOPIC, LET’S HAVE A
SHORT RECAP.
WHAT DO YOU CALL TO THE
DEVICE OR APPLIANCES THAT
USES ELECTRICITY? -LOAD
IT IS THE SOURCE OF ENERGY
TO MOVE THE ELECTRONS? -
POWER SOURCE
IT LINKS ALL PARTS OF THE
CIRCUIT AND CREATE A PATH
WHERE CURRENT FLOW. -
CONNECTOR
IT CONTROLS THE FLOW OF
ELECTRICITY. IT CAN
CONNECT OR DISCONNECT
THE PATH OF ELECTRIC
CURRENT. - SWITCH
 name the objects in your home that use
electricity?
what are they?
does your appliances and gadgets at home
have a switch off and on?

today we are going to discuss the close and

open circuit.
 think and name the objects in your home that
use electricity?
what are they?
does your appliances and gadgets at home
have a switch off and on?

open circuit.
OBJECTIVES:
AT THE END OF THIS LESSON
YOU ARE ABLE TO

IDENTIFY A CLOSE AND OPEN CIRCUIT;

AND
UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE OF
CLOSE AND OPEN CIRCUIT
A CLOSE CIRCUIT MAKES THE
BULB LIGHT UP BECAUSE THE
PATH OF ELECTRICITY IS
COMPLETE, ALLOWING
ELECTRICITY TO FLOW
THROUGH IT.
ELECTRICITY FLOWS FROM
THE NEGATIVE TO POSITIVE
TERMINAL OF THE DRY CELL.
OPEN CIRCUIT
ELECTRICITY DOES
NOT FLOW IN THIS KIND OF
CIRCUIT BECAUSE THERE IS A
GAP OR NO COMPLETE PATH
FROM ONE END OF THE
CIRCUIT TO THE OTHER END.
What is an open circuit?
What is a close circuit?
